Ok, if you’ve been wanting to start playing with stocks and bonds, but have been put off by minimums or per-trade fees, zecco.com has recently announced that October will be 100% free for all trades, no minimums.

See this press release for more details. Looks like this might be a good time to get your feet wet. With the markets ~25-35% lower, you can find some great deals, though no doubt there’s a bit more fallout to go before we’ve seen this through. Nevertheless, one or two decades from now many of us will be kicking ourselves for not jumping in sooner. Or we’ll be dead. Or something.

Sorry this sounds like an advertisement 🙁 October’s gonna be exciting for me for a few other reasons, so this was just one more to add to my list 🙂
